Subject[PATCH v2 1/3] mm: document zone device struct page field usage
Date
Struct page for ZONE_DEVICE private pages uses the page->mapping and
and page->index fields while the source anonymous pages are migrated to
device private memory. This is so rmap_walk() can find the page when
migrating the ZONE_DEVICE private page back to system memory.
ZONE_DEVICE pmem backed fsdax pages also use the page->mapping and
page->index fields when files are mapped into a process address space.

Restructure struct page and add comments to make this more clear.
